Football...and shoes?

Footie_1 I'm not a big football fan, but you really can't avoid the big game when you work for the people responsible for Who Ate All The Bratwurst, the World Cup blog. Luckily, they cater for clueless girls as well as die-hard footy fanatics. The offside rule for girls likens a football match to a shoe shopping trip. Offensive and politically incorrect? Maybe. Funny? Definitely! And don't blame us entirely, it comes from an email that's currently doing the rounds...

[Casadei's football shoes are no longer available, sorry]

Casadei had also put out a soccer version that was silver and black. They came with, believe it or not, an extra pair of stilletto heels and a mini wrench so you can replace the existing pair when needed be. I actually thought about buying a pair, until I tried them on. Like the material of a real soccer ball, they're hard and have absolutely no give. The back of the shoe, designed just like the football version, cuts deep into the back of my ankles. Still set on buying the pair, I thought the hard leather would let up just a wee bit if I paraded around in them for a few minutes. Boy was I wrong. Three minutes of pacing back and forth in front of the mirror was all I could endure. If there was ever a shoe designed to inflict pain and torture, they would have been the ideal pair.
